I think it says in the directions,, that you go like seven holes in on each side notch it out. I did that and then the latch still hit when you went to pop the safety on the latch. So you can do two things. Either trim the latch down where it will hit the condenser. Buy a vw style latch and catch for the hood and build a plate or order one from ironworks I believe sells one. The only other choice would be hood pins. I am not big on them but it may be a simple solution. I think some grinding on the back of hood latch will take care of it.

Do they make a fan assembly that fits this heat exchanger ??

Where it's mounted it draws through the radiator so that fan pulls the air for it.

I know MattG, who started this thread, had was happy with it before I bought his entire setup. I haven't installed it yet, but I heard nothing but rave reviews for C&R products.

I got this piece in this week from Summit. It only came with the Heat Exchanger and top bracket. Is there a bottom bracket and mounting hardware? Am I missing pieces? (It's typical if I am) There is nowhere to mount the bottom pegs....
